Dialogue[edit]

Event start
General Nephus: The barrier has fallen, but now we must cut off the flow of power being harvested from Nayos.
General Nephus: Use those mounts of yours to destroy the extractors. We will hold our position at the coliseum.
Arina: The warden and I are on our way, and we're bringing a little help.
Arina: We've got some of Strumm's caustic grenades here. They should work against the extractors.
Arina: If you run out, you can recharge them with essence from their defense turrets.
Talking to Frode
Frode: Glad you made it. Arina and I came to see that everyone has what they need to take these extractors out. Strumm's caustic grenades are the perfect thing to do the trick.
Talk more option tango.png What do they do?
Those extractors are stripping Nayos of its resources. Not sure where it's going, but it can't be anywhere good. We need these towers down if we're going to continue the assault.
Talk more option tango.png That sounds bad. How can I help?
Use these caustic grenades—they'll blast the membranes protecting the nodes to pieces. Then hop on your skyscale and take them out. The extractors should shut down once enough are gone.
Talk ready option.png Let's do it.
Thank you. Here's all you can hold, along with a canister that can reconstitute the acid of essence you get from the defending Kryptis turrets. Good luck, Wayfinder.
Talk end option tango.png I'll get to work.
Talk end option tango.png Not right now.
Talk ready option.png Let's do it. Give me Strumm's grenades.
Talk end option tango.png I'll try later.
Talk ready option.png Let's do it. Give me Strumm's grenades.
Talk end option tango.png I've changed my mind.
Talking to Arina
Arina: Wayfinder. The warden and I are here to make sure everyone has what they need to take down these extractors. Strumm's caustic grenades are the right tool for the job.
Talk more option tango.png What do they do?
Those extractors pull resources from Nayos and pump them directly into Zakiros. Who knows what Eparch is scheming with that much raw energy.
Talk more option tango.png That sounds bad. How can I help?
We've got caustic grenades to handle them. Use them to blow apart the membranes protecting the nodes, then use your skyscale to take them out. Clear out enough, and the extractors should shut down.
Talk ready option.png Let's do it.
Excellent. Here's all you can hold, along with a canister that can reconstitute more grenades from the acid of any essence you get from the defending Kryptis turrets.
Talk end option tango.png I'll get to work.

Talk ready option.png I'll help. Give me Strumm's grenades.
